Tomáš Sobotka and Ondra Beneš created so called Dolní Žleb Company which represents a huge “production plant” of sandstone routes with a difficulty between VI and XIb. Their prime climbs, which can be counted in tens, strongly influenced climbing in the Elb Valley. Tomáš is not only a great prime climber but also a great climber with fibre to share. We can find on his list uncountable set of RP climbs with a difficulty from Xa to XIb. He prefers quick climbs and he likes to climb routes in OS style. In this style he has done couple Xb. On a limestone he has climbed 8b and 8a in OS style. Big walls became a great challenge for him because he is looking for new experience and practice. Every year Tomáš together with Ondra Beneš tries to search prime climbs in new areas all over the world where they can test their technique and fibre on very difficult climbs.
